Do you need to be a Prime Member to shop during the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales?
Yes, you will need to be a Prime Member to shop the exclusive sales during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Prime membership starts at $14.99 per month. While only you can decide if buying a yearly Prime membership is worth it for you, remember you can always sign up and then cancel your Prime membership once the sale is over: Amazon offers a free 30-day trial, so you can shop during both events (and even get some early Black Friday deals) before canceling without being charged. Here’s how to sign up for a Prime account and all of the benefits that come with it.
What other retailers are doing Black Friday sales?
The other major retailers doing sales are Best Buy, Target, and Walmart. Right now, Best Buy is the one having the biggest early Black Friday sale, with new deals every Friday. Target has some week-long deals and a Deal of the Day. For Walmart, you’ll have to wait until Nov. 14.
